MIAMI, Feb. 6 Parental Alienation AwarenessOrganization (PAAO) is beginning the New Year by launching its campaign toorganize events for April 25th - Parental Alienation Awareness Day.

Because most people do not know about Parental Alienation until theyexperience it, parental alienation awareness was put forth to help raiseawareness and education about this growing problem.

The mission of PAAO is to help the public and professionals become awareof certain behaviors, often seen in the context of divorce, which can damagethe parent-child relationship.

Such behaviors as speaking negatively about a parent to a child,interfering with communication between a parent and child, and sharinginappropriate information, such as details of the marriage and divorce with achild, have the potential to leave children confused, angry, and frightened.Most mental health professionals agree that this is a form of emotional abuse.

One of PAAO's activities involves requesting our state governors to issueproclamations declaring April 25th, as Parental Alienation Awareness Day. Weare pleased that the states of Florida, Indiana, Connecticut, Montana,Kentucky, Iowa, Maine, Nevada, and Nebraska have issued either proclamationsor recognitions of that date.

"We are calling on our United States residents to request proclamationsfrom their governors so that everyone in every state will be made aware of thepain and damage parental alienation behaviors can do to our children andfamilies," states Sarvy Emo, President and co-founder of Parental AlienationAwareness Organization.

PAAO is planning a 24-hour webinar on April 25th, with well recognizedexperts on Parental Alienation, as well as coordinating events in many areasboth nationally and internationally.

"We are looking to make Parental Alienation part of the public vocabulary.Its behaviors and effects must be understood so that we can address solutionsto these situations," adds Robin Denison, Vice President and co-founder ofParental Alienation Awareness Organization.

PAAO is striving to make 2008 the year that all children will be able togive and receive all of the love they deserve.
